RemoveEmptyStaves and the ambitus_engraver

It seems that \RemoveEmptyStaves doesn't play very well with the

In this example, I'm trying to get the treble staff removed in the

It is removed correctly in the first system. But reappears in the

As this stand this generates a programming error grob does not belong to a
VerticalAlignment. The output corresponds to what I want with the bar lines
spanning both staves.
However, if I comment out the \consists line no error appears. (Of course the
output isn't the same either -- the bar lines are confined to their own staves).
Does anyone have an idea how to get an error free compile and the bar lines
spanning.

This is often a good idea since it enables you to adapt the midi in other

Lyric extenders in the middle of words
Question to the wise : how do you use extenders in the _middle_
of words.
I know that the documentation says
In the last syllable of a word, melismata are sometimes
indicated with a long horizontal line starting in the melisma
syllable, and ending in the next one.
I have the following example:
\version 2.13.7
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
\relative c'' {
a4\(b4\)a2 } \addlyrics {
Me -- lo -- dy } \addlyrics {
Ly __ _-- ric }
The 'Ly' of lyric is stretched across two notes and I want to
indicate this with an extender. However, it is the first syllable
of 'Lyric' and I want to indicate this with a hyphen.
The above example throws out the error
programming error: hyphen not finished yet
continuing, cross fingers
and junks the hyphen.
I also tried the following
\version 2.13.7
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
\relative c'' {
a4\( b4\) a2 } \addlyrics {
Me-- lo -- dy } \addlyrics {
Ly __ -- \skip 4ric }
This compiles without errors but now the extender stretches below
the hyphen which looks odd.
Does anyone have any ideas how this could be managed?

In vocal music, there are two symbols to indicated that a particular is sung for more than one note: the hyphen and the extender line. A hyphen is used between two syllables of the same word to let the singer know that these two syllables belong to the same word. The extender line is used at the end of a word to let the singer know that this word is sung for more than one note. Or better yet, do you have an example of somewhere this is used?

example for instance, I'd like to add the \consists of the forty odd
components used by Voice without have to type them by hand, and
without needing to recheck them for every new version of Lilypond I
install.
Thanks for any help forthcoming

Nice!
Is there a way to get rid of the warning: no such internal option:
target?
I asked Nicolas Sceaux the same question when he helped me set this up.
Apparently, the internal options are hard-coded and the warning is
displayed before the scheme code is executed. :-(
This lets you have constructs such as
\ifTargetIn #'(foo) {
...
}
A limitation is that it works on music expressions, while I would like
such a function to operate on (a series of) input lines.
Similar to
\ifTargetIn #'(foo) \include somelines.ly
but then with the contents of somelines.ly included, e.g.,
\ifTargetIn #'(foo) \do
... arbitrary lines of lilypond code ...
\done
Agreed.
My original solution was to use a perl pre-processor that stripped out
unwanted code. This made debugging much more difficult since the lilypond
parser dosn't see the same thing as in the source code (different line
numbers and unexpected side-effects).
I've come across four cases using the 'ifTarget' solution
1. Musical expressions work fine (when used with grouping like ... and
{...}
2. Scheme snippets and markup blocks for which there are #if-target-in
equivalents
3. Layout, paper and other context configuration can usually be handled by
scheme snippets, though some acrobatics may be necessary.
4. Top-level constructs (\include, \score, variable definitions) for which
I haven't been able to find a solution. On other hand, this hasn't raised
too many problems since the /contents/ of these constructs can always be
protected by the macros. The downside is that I need to live with warnings
such as warning: no music found in score
If you have any ideas on how to improve it, let me know

Re: Scheme question: symbol to music
Johan
This is the sort of thing I was playing with earlier on this year.
Take a look at http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1id=493
This lets you have constructs such as
\ifTargetIn #'(foo) {
...
}
In this case the symbols are switched on/off on the command-line but you
could always change the scheme code to use symbols defined in the scheme
code on the fly

However, you may want to reorganize your score along the lines of

setting the remove-empty property.
/Mats
Hi Mats
Thanks for your ideas. You proposed three work-arounds :
1. I don't need to switch between french and normal staves (AFAICS).
2. When I use the same staff context, I still get exactly the same
error. In your examples you leave out the lyrics, they are at
the core of the problem. For instance:
- - - -[START]
\version 2.11.60
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
\score{ {
\new Staff = soprano \relative c' { c d e f | g1 | }
%\addlyrics{ \lyricmode { Did -- dle did -- dle dum. } }
\context Staff = soprano \relative c'' { g4 f e d | c1 | }
\addlyrics{ \lyricmode { Did -- dle did -- dle dum. } }
\new Staff = solo \relative c'' {g8 c g f e g e d | c1 | }
} }
- - - -[END]
Try uncommenting the first lyric line
3. The third alternative won't do either. The two groups represent
refrain and verse. I use separate variables to be able to use
different content structure in the PDF (Ref. + V1 + V2 + V3) and
in the midi (Ref + V1 + Ref + V2 + Ref. + V3 + Ref). So introducing
additional staves on the fly makes this much more difficult.
Thanks for forwarding this to lilypond-bugs. I wasn't sure whether I
was missing something simple, or whether it really is a bug.
Cheers

Re: Lyrics provoke Moment is not increasing complaint
Thanks Trevor for your suggestions. I hadn't even considered the multi-score solution because that splits the midi to two files. And then I realised that, in this case, it doesn't really matter since the midi and PDF definitions are quite different. The other solution consists of 'adapting' an existing system by adding or hiding new staves, rather than 'replacing' one system by another one that's quite different. Your example works in my cut down snippet. In the full piece, I'd need to add staves above the common one. However, I can see how to do that by predefining all the staves and using #(ly:export (skip-of-length ...)) to hide them when they're not needed. (I see what Mats was getting at now with french staves). Still, this solution leaves me unsatisfied. It means more faffing around... but it does produce the output I want. I feel that my original construct is cleaner and corresponds to the spirit of the parallel/sequence expression syntax, and would love to understand _why_ it's wrong (apart from the obvious fact that it make Lilypond squeal and produce duff output). Anyway, you(ve both given me a practical way forward, and I'll let the powers that be decide whether the original example constitutes a bug or an abuse of Lilypond.

The only reference to this problem that I could find was a posting

He solves the problem by changing the lyrics, which isn't an option in
my case.

I tried noindent as well, without any success.
I think that the problem is with the quote argument rather than the indent.

Re: \tag can't follow \lyricsto
Trevor Daniels wrote
OK, I see what you are trying to do. The error is that
the order of the commands in the lyrics line is wrong,
and the \new Lyrics command should be followed by { .. }
just like \new Staff is. Then it works fine, like this:
\new Staff { \new Voice = dirge { c''1 } }
\new Lyrics { \lyricsto dirge { Whoops } }
\tag #'harmony \new Staff {a'1}
Right.
The command order I'm using is from a really old template that I've
been using for years without problems. I came across your formulation
when checking an answer to another post on the bugs list.
Looks as if I'll have to update my templates. (Who's got the sed user
guide?)
However, there is an easier way to include or exclude
the harmony, without using tags, like this:
harmony = { \new Staff {a'1} }
\new Staff { \new Voice = dirge { c''1 } }
\lyricsto dirge \new Lyrics { Whoops }
%\harmony %uncomment to include harmony
That doesn't convince me.
Ideally, I want to produce different output from the same score
_without_ touching the contents. My idea (dream?) of using tags was
to eventually write a dollop of scheme that would be able to look at
the command line arguments and set \keepWithTag or \removeWithTag as
appropriate. However, the way that tags are implemented today isn't
powerful enough for what I want to do... they can only be used to filter
music expressions -- I'd like to be able to filter out markup, scores and
anything else in the input file. (Well, I did say 'dream'!).
At the moment I'm using a cobbled together solution partly based on tags,
and partly based on a perl preprocessor that does the filtering before
passing the input onto to Lilypond -- but pretty it ain't.
Tags are usually used for short sections of music.
You might find section 3.3.2 Different editions
from one source in the most recent version of the
2.11 docs worth a read - it was recently rewritten.
Yes, I have. That's where I found out about tags in the first place.
Thanks for your input, anyway.
